   Mesoscale Discussion 0175
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0715 AM CST Wed Feb 28 2024

   Areas affected...Southwest Pennsylvania...West Virginia...Far
   western Virginia...Eastern Kentucky...Northern Tennessee

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 28...29...

   Valid 281315Z - 281515Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 28, 29 continues.

   SUMMARY...An isolated severe threat is expected to continue as a
   line moves eastward into the Appalachians. The threat should become
   marginal this morning, and additional weather watch issuance is not
   expected.

   DISCUSSION...The latest mosaic radar imagery from southwest
   Pennsylvania southwestward to middle Tennessee shows a line of
   thunderstorms with several embedded severe storms and short bowing
   line segments. This line will continue to move eastward into the
   Appalachians this morning, where RAP analysis suggests weak
   instability is present. This, combined with strong deep-layer shear
   will likely continue to support a wind-damage and hail threat for
   another hour or two. However, these threats are expected to become
   increasingly marginal as the line moves to the east of the current
   watches. At this time, weather watch issuance is not planned to the
   east of the ongoing watches.
